Vegas, Baby

When I was a kid there was this lady always
Walking down the street with a
Cigarette in her mouth and
I haven't seen her since
Now she's probably dead
I'm threading my cheek through the sides of my teeth again
And now my dentist is concerned about me and he
Thinks these nervous ticks will fade but
I don't think they'll change

Cuz it's all at once or never like that
One guy in Casino
Take a little off the top and
You're all right

Whoever said that life is short you're wrong
Look at all these bad things, they're the only things we can do well
Are these the only things that we could ever do well
Someone sometime in history has been forgotten
No rest for the wicked
Only monuments and movies and textbooks

Bludgeon me with a baseball bat
It's the only thing I know
Bury me naked in the sand when I'm breathing
I'm buried but I'm still breathing

Las Vegas, like the world, can't protect me anymore
And it's something that I'll never learn to fight
